So my wife and I are treating out two teen boys to their first NFL game and more importantly, their first BRONCOS game!!! It's been a rough year and we want it to go out on a high note and mile high seemed a great way to do it!

I've looked through several forums and haven't been able to find a definitive answer to my question....

My question is, how does the pre-game tailgate work. Is it kosher to approach friendly looking folks in the parking lot and offer them some $$$ to join in the festivities or is that not acceptable. We want to include our kids in the fun, but don't want to intrude on someones pre-game ritual! Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

We are flying down from Montana and want to pre-plan as much as possible. Thanks again!!!

Secondary advice: Contact the poster named Rabb on here. He throws a wicked tailgate, that is open to all. Things sometimes get wild, though... so keep that in mind with your kids.

Tertiary advice: Check out the Broncos "official" tailgate options. Mountain Village opens at 11 for 2pm games and does a bunch of specials with the games on. There is a budlight garden arean just on the south side of the stadium with stuff. There is the mini-mile high that is a replica of the old stadium that you can sit in the old seats, watch highlights of old games, get cheap drinks, and a bunch of vendors give away free snacks and cokes and stuff.

Fourth idea: Wander around the M and C lots... many people are very cool.

Hey! Thanks for the reply! We are going to the December 15th game against the Browns. Just trying to make sure my sons get the entire Broncos game day experience! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
